Description

My first time imaging the California Nebula. Taken with my modified Canon 60D and Samyang 135mm. During my first session I had a very limited window between clouds so decided to shoot wide open at f/2. My second session was at a dark sky site and I was able to add 4 more hours to create the final image.

The lens seems to perform quite well even at the maximum aperture.
